Which city was the main centre of the February Revolution of 1917?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Petrograd

The governing historical concept is the February Revolution of 1917 and its urban setting. The revolution began in Petrograd, the city then known as St Petersburg and later renamed Leningrad during the Soviet period. In February, strikes and demonstrations—especially those involving workers and women protesting food shortages—spread through the city. Soldiers eventually joined the protesters, weakening the government and forcing Tsar Nicholas II to abdicate. Therefore option B, Petrograd, is correct. Moscow was important in Russian history and later revolutionary events, but it was not the principal centre of the February uprising. Kazan and Kiev were significant cities but were not the main location of this revolution. The city’s name is a useful chronological clue for the 1917 events.
